life, love and some other stuff…

Moved to WordPress

Ok, here’s my first post from WordPress.

Update your links and feeds!

The old RSS feed link (http://www.shwango.com/blog/index.xml) will still be active for a while - I’ve got some mod_rewrite rules setup to handle the redirection.

Quick update

  • I’m still here!
  • Busy at work! Busy at life!
  • Working on “doing things right”.
  • Realizing I’m not a good programmer and trying to get better.
  • Quartz rocks!
  • Joel rocks! Playing with FogBUGZ too.
  • Patterns are cool.

As usual, I will post more later. No, really! I want to post about a lot of progress personally and professionally I feel I’m making. Good stuff!

Jen and I are headed to North Carolina this weekend for my cousin’s wedding, but I promise to post more next week!

New addiction…

Peanut Butter M&Ms! Yum!

w.o.m.d. humor…

do this…

1. go to google.

2. type in “weapons of mass destruction” but click on “I’m feeling lucky”, not “Google Search”.

3. laugh out loud.

it should go here if they keep it functional.

the “onion house”

i’ve never been to any real tropical locations… never even been to florida! (i did spend a few days by the mediterranean in torremolinos, spain back in high school on a class trip.) but if i ever do get a chance to travel - i hope i do! - i’d love to rent the “onion house”. not really roughing it, but i think it’s cool.

kissing catchers…

the new reds stadium, great american ball park, has some little fun things they do on the scoreboard between innings and such, including the “kiss cam” - where they show couples up on the big tv, who then kiss. kinda cute i think. but this guy got a little more than he bargained for - like jail!

ahhh….

ok, so we all have our little pleasures and addictions. i enjoy scotch (talisker is my fav, but i’m enjoying the glenlivet at the moment). i like cloves on occasion. m&ms. and coffee.

i hadn’t had a cup in a while - maybe a month. not that i gave it up, i just didn’t make any in the mornings - maybe laziness or subconscious health reasons… but today i brewed a pot and that cup of coffee was wonderful! yes, the simple things please me…

mt formatting…

mt looks ugly with only a few posts to show.

instead of configuring “number of days”, i think it’d be better to do “number of entries”. that way the last 30 entries would be shown even if those were over a two month time frame. prolly could change manually in the stylesheet.

oh crap…

well, only one post last month… not good. not that i haven’t had anything to post, just haven’t been motivated to post… that’ll have to change…

what’s up?

ok, i know… again no posts in a while. maybe the novelty has worn off. i hope not! i got to get back to posting. no excuses!
